    Most likely cause of random missing video files? and other issues....

    thanks guys. pretty sure the smart codec was the culprit. BI seems to be much more responsive now @fenderman thank you. on a side note, is it ok to delete all the files in the db folder to start from scratch?

    Most likely cause of random missing video files? and other issues....

    @fenderman if I recall correctly , I read at one time that lowering the resolution of the monitoring feeds, but leaving the actual recorded files at full resolution would help with CPU usage. I did that a good while back, and it did lower the CPU useage, but I think that's when the problems...

    Most likely cause of random missing video files? and other issues....

    good idea @fenderman . I assigned the storage location to the SSD, and did some test triggers walking across the yard etc. same thing, laggy plaback/ jumping around. it also has tearing of the moving object. ram usage is low ( total system useage 1.03 GB - CPU at about 25%. ) the rest of the...

    Most likely cause of random missing video files? and other issues....

    Hi guys, I'm ready to burn and pave this thing, but wanted to ask first because I suspect maybe my storage drive is crapping out, but not sure. system specs: core i5 4590 , 8 gig ram, windows 10, 4 cameras total 4tb hdd , 120 gb ssd. Blue iris is really laggy, for instance when I go to open...

    Sorry, the file could not be found

    opening new alerts after the DB rebuild is the same hit or mostly miss result. if I make storage 0 where will the files go? new on C? these are hardwired cameras that all connect to the POE injector, and then strait into the PC. the camera settings have not changed, and they never used to...

    Sorry, the file could not be found

    thanks, it changed something. now it says "sorry, there is no file to open" instead of "Sorry, the file could not be found" (about ready to take a hammer to it) also some of the live feeds ( and I assume recorded files if i could find them) have this weird trail/glitch anomaly on moving...

    Sorry, the file could not be found

    Hi guys, Im getting the "Sorry, the file could not be found" message when trying to view alerts. I have verified that my drives are ok, and have tried to make sure that all the file folders are setup correctly in terms of having the record folders set properly under the recording tabs for...

    crashing overnight, C: suddenly over allocated?

    Hi guys, as the title says BI is crashing overnight, and C: (db,log) suddenly over allocated? warning on bottom of screen shows +600mb over? I didn't change anything, and this is happening all of a sudden. When inspecting the C: drive in my computer (Solid state 100gb) it shows 75 gigs free...

    Blue iris main window suddenly only showing one camera?

    Hi guys, this is probably user error, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to show all 4 cameras in the non "maximized frame" mode. If I right click and select "maximized frame" they are all there, and still working/recording fine. I like the main screen showing all cameras with...

    can't activate license?

    Hi guys, I have blue iris 5 running on a personal home 4 camera system. The machine it's running on is not connected to the internet. When I enter my license key it gives me a URL to retrieve the activation code. I entered the code on my other computer with an internet connection. When I copy...

    Silent PC recommendation

    Hi guys, I'm looking for a fanless PC to run a 4 camera blue iris setup on. Have any of you had success with certain makes/models? I find the biggest thing is most of them are too small to accommodate the 3.5" HD.....any insight? thanks. "

I downloaded the link in the wiki to driver version 15.40.42.5063, but when i install this driver...
